Engineer, maker, geek and magician, in no particular order.
Diversion for the week: from some spare and repurposed parts, 3d printing, #Arduino programming and a bit of @adafruit.com magic, I made this remote controlled wagging raccoon tail in a lunch box.

Lots of progress on my @circuitpython.org game for the @adafruit.com Fruit Jam. Premise is you mine for minerals on different moons. Have a title screen, mechanics working, multiple page game working and a few animations. Next up is to fix bugs, add additional levels and animations.

One of my early @circuitpython.org projects and still one of my favs. The EZ Make Oven is a reflow oven for soldering surface mount components to PCBs built from @adafruit.com parts with no high voltage wiring. I've been using it for over 5 years. Learn guide here: learn.adafruit.com/ez-make-oven

WIP: This week for my @circuitpython.org game running on the @adafruit.com #FruitJam, I worked on some physics, created a ship graphic, added text to the display and updated the screen graphics. I think it is coming along nicely.

WIP: New project. Starting simple, I'm working on the mechanics/physics of a re-imagined #retro game from the past. @circuitpython.org @adafruit.com #FruitJam

A blinking cursor adds a retro look to my #Zork #ZMachine running on #CircuitPython and the @adafruit.com #FruitJam

Not my typical project, but I created this magical #storytelling bag about the story of #noah. There are a total of 10 story panels and 5 bag changes. I used #inkscape for the drawings and printed it on custom fabric. I’m making a few so pm me if interested in one.
